Here comes the helicopter, second time today Everybody scatters and hopes it goes away How many kids they've murdered only God can say, hey If I had a rocket launcher, if I had a rocket launcher If I had a rocket launcher, I'd make somebody pay I don't believe in guarded borders and I don't believe in hate I don't believe in generals or their stinking torture states And when I talk with the survivors of things too sickening to relate If I had a rocket launcher, if I had a rocket launcher If I had a rocket launcher, I would retaliate On the Rio Lacantun, one hundred thousand wait To fall down from starvation, or some less humane fate Cry for Guatemala, with a corpse in every gate If I had a rocket launcher, if I had a rocket launcher If I had a rocket launcher, I would not hesitate I want to raise every voice, at least I've got to try Every time I think about it water rises to my eyes. Situation desperate, echoes of the victims cry If I had a rocket launcher, if I had a rocket launcher If I had a rocket launcher, some son of a bitch would die
